The Testament of Sherlock Holmes Hints
How can I deal with Prince Woodville?
1 of 11: Move down the path past the caravan area until you find the theater building, then go inside to find Prince Woodville hamming it up on-stage.
2 of 11: Move up to the stage until he talks to you, then try to trick him into believing Holmes' cover story.
3 of 11: You can't finish the dialogue with Woodville until after you've found the three Russian brothers. (See the question about where you can get an explosive.) Once you've seen the brothers through the window, return to the theater to talk to Woodville again.
4 of 11: When you get three dialogue choices, pick one of the two that mention Moriarty.
5 of 11: No matter which one you choose, Woodville will get suspicious, and will insist on keeping Watson with him at gunpoint. You'll need to find a way to incapacitate Woodville without endangering Watson.
6 of 11: Go back to the theater's entry door, then click on the red rope's hand icon to move it aside.
7 of 11: You can then go up to the side of the stage, where you'll have access to a lever and some tangled ropes.
8 of 11: The lever won't work at first, so you'll need to click on the ropes' hand icon to bring up their puzzle screen.
